The Kirby Laing Institute for Christian Ethics
About
As a result of generous support from the Kirby Laing Foundation, the Whitefield Institute was reconstituted in summer 2006 as the Kirby Laing Institute for Christian Ethics. Its new location in Tyndale House, which has a worldwide reputation for excellence in biblical studies, will help it to fulfill its aim to promote the study and understanding of Christian ethics marked by both biblical fidelity and contemporary relevance.
Aims and Activities
The Institute aims to fulfil its mandate through the following activities:
- facilitating academic research and publication by Institute staff, associates and post-graduate students
- financially supporting a limited number of doctoral students working on issues in Christian ethics
- organising academic conferences, seminars and symposia, and wider public events
- publishing six issues of Ethics in Brief per year
- offering commentary on selected ethical issues through lectures and talks and through the media
- developing website resources to assist reflection on relevant areas of Christian ethics
